Steve Kerr’s presence is not necessary on a day to day basis with this team. The teams success is based on the teams camaraderie on and off the court. The individual talent is very apparent, but it only works because all the star players love and respect each other. Therefore buying into their roles and having each others back is effortless. Its these forementioned attributes that makes it easier for Kerr to miss games on the sideline or in practice. The system that Kerr put in place is bigger than any player or coach. They move pieces and plug vacant holes better than any team I’ve ever seen…its always a seamless transition.
To hear Jason Whitlock say racism is based on socioeconomical status is total BS. There is no racism rule book or guidline for administering racism, it is present in all facets of life. The ignorance and buffoonery thats involved with someone saying that a black man cant speak on racism because he is currently rich, is embarrassing and disgraceful to the black race. Lebron is from the projects, he lived through racism, his family and friends that aren’t rich still deal with racism, the families of children he helps still experience racism. There is a quote, “the only way wicked/evil can succeed is for good men to do nothing”. This means that whether something is affecting you directly or not, yet its heavy on your heart, you still speak up for the oppressed and try to make a positive difference. Im not homeless, but i help the homeless and speak up for them…im not a starving person in Africa, but I’ve sent money to help feed Africans…i dont live in the ocean, but i advocate to save marine life. So when i hear an idiot like Whitlock say Lebron can’t speak on racism because he’s rich, i have to ask myself, who the f… gave this dude a job on tv speaking on issues that are clearly above his mental faculties and understanding ? …but then i realize Whitlock is on the Fox Network. Its very clear that Whitlock was hired solely to speak in contrast and antagonize other black analyst and athletes. Whitlock is not giving his honest opinion, he’s doing what he was hired to do, be the stick that stirs controversy. This is not a theory, this is a fact ! Go back and look at Whitlock interviewing Jim Brown right after the ESPY Awards, when Jim Brown and Jason Whitlock spoke about Chris Paul, Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony and Dwayne Wade taking a stand against racist police shootings of unarmed black men at the ESPY’s. Whitlock was damn near singing “Kum-ba-ya” in front of Jim Brown, while also marveling at Chris, Lebron, Carmelo and D-Wades efforts in bringing awareness to racism in America. Now Whitlock, not sitting across from Jim Brown, is saying things completely opposite from what he said previously, when he was in total support of speaking out on racial issues.
